I am considering jumping ship to TMO, are you saying I can't forward my mail from a POP3 account to get it instant and use that same account as my "send from" like I currently do with Cingular?

You can forward your mail from a POP3 account and get it instantly. I have a TMO 7100t and have my gmail account forwarded to the BB INSTANTLY and when I compose an email from the BB it shows on the other end as being sent from my gmail address. Now if you want to know how to set it up I would have to look at mine after you make the switch cause I cant remember how I did it exactly.

Did you set this up in the old webclient or new BIS?

The old webclient seetings carried over to the NEW BIS. However,in the new BIS setup i can't find where to change your "sent from" address. I can only see to add new accounts.

Nothing like moving backwards. How often does the BB poll a pop account that you add

I must be missing something, how is this moving backwards and what exactly are you missing? Why do you need to forward all your accounts to the BB mail address? And if you look at the top of the message you are sending you can make it appear to come from any of your accounts including your BB account.

If it is the up to 15 minute delay that bothers you sign up for a free yahoo account and forward all your mail there. Again, you can make it appear to come from any of your accounts if you don't want yahoo as a sending address.

Now I am really confused. Why wouldn't the yahoo account have a 15 minute delay?

For me, I don't have "all these accounts", I have 1 POP3 account that I use for business, having the mail instantanous is important to me, especially if you are in the middle of a mail conversation. Now, I do have another Yahoo account for personal stuff that isn't as important and I could live with the 15 minute delay, I currently just read it from the browser and don't forward it to my BB.

Now I am really confused. Why wouldn't the yahoo account have a 15 minute delay?

TMO and yahoo have a deal where any yahoo accounts you setup in BIS are pushed instead of polled.. I use that and love it. Plus it sync's with your BIS so when you delete it on your handheld, its off your yahoo account.
